This whole, pathetic little farce [TMN please read].

Regarding Cassies original post, I agree. Personally I enjoy reading TMN and how they turn chats on these (and other) forums into comical posts from their viewpoint. From what I've read (until the whole Mike thing happened) it's all been light hearted and really quite funny! Maybe it's because I don't take much I read on the internet seriously, but it's not caused any harm in the past.

Regarding the latest incidents, we all know, and I've warned people a few times, that you should never post personal details on the internet, whether it be email addresses, phone numbers, postal addresses or shoe sizes. If you put it on the internet, people will find it, and potentially abuse this information. TMN highlighted this fact, but didn't do so (from what I can see) in a negative way.

Regarding the whole Mike/Comrade Rich thing, I don't know anything about this so cannot comment until I've spoken to Mike. I don't think I know who Rich is...

So in short, don't take TMN posts so seriously, they are just having fun with their comical writings, in which I see no harm. I'm not taking sides here as I don't know the full story, but if anyone does have an issue with something they have written about them, email them and ask them (nicely!) to remove it, from what I've read they seem reasonable people!

Again, let me stress that I'm not taking sides, the fence is a nice place to sit and watch this type of discussion...

Thanks Matt.
I'm the same - no taking sides, & I personally really enjoyed their comical spin on out posts too. I was simply tired of the underlying tension this place had at the time. Glad to see Mike seems to be feeling a bit better now. =)
Maybe TMN is taking no notice, that's really up to them. As long as WE'RE okay on here, it's not of interest really. {yes}
